Budding movie stars are being sought for a new film which tells the story of Robert the Bruce.

Agencies Key Casting and We Are POP are searching for Scots to feature in a historical biopic about the legendary Scottish king.

The casting agencies need rough and ready types to emulate the aesthetic of 14th century folk.

The motion picture will star Chris Pine as Robert The Bruce and Ben Foster as James Douglas. The two actors recently played two brothers in the Oscar nominated Hell or High Water from Scots director David Mackenzie who will direct the new movie. The flick will be released on Netflix under the title, “The Outlaw King.”

A poster for the feature film described it as: “A true David v Goliath story of how the great 14th century Scottish ‘Outlaw King’ Robert The Bruce used cunning and bravery to defeat and repel the much larger and better equipped occupying English army.”
